Dead Space 2 Launch Trailer

A look at some of the characters, human and former-human alike, Isaac will encounter (and dismember).

The countdown clock is ticking closer to zero, with less than two weeks to go until the launch of Visceral Games' sci-fi survival horror sequel, Dead Space 2. See what's in store for plasma cutter-wielding protagonist Isaac Clarke in the just released launch trailer.

In Dead Space 2, Isaac won't arrive on a ship already overtaken by Necromorphs, he'll see the infection caused by the mysterious Marker begin and spread.

Dead Space 2 is an Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Windows PC game. The title is set to ship on January 25.
